Goddang it

Our stickies are really getting drowned out by this advertising. I'm sorry, I know it's nick's site and all...but seriously!! Intellitext, cardomain, and the Google advertising is okay - messing up our FAQ and master threads is really irksome.

Sorry, had to vent, no other place to do it. If the mods feel this is inappropriate, please delete this.

I'm sure there are dozens of them elsewhere on the site. It is irritating, but it's also the way the site stays going, so it's best to bear with it and go with the flow.

Oh, and you forgot Zoints :P

Wiscon_Mark · 02-02-2007, 12:32 AM

And synergy. Whatever the heck that is...

No, I don't think it's just to "keep the site going" anymore...Nick is making a fair amount of money on this whole deal.

Not that it's a bad thing, but the stickey stuff is just going too far.

the number of noob posts asking the same crap over and over should tell you nobody is reading the stickys anyway,

Nick may have wasted his time, it seems nobody pays any attention to the sticky threads

btw, does anybody know what BOV is best? i wants the sweet fast and furious whoosh when i race teh hondas!!@#!!K#@1!

Right, but this is going to discourage it a lot more

Considering that we have some stickeys that are the product of a lot of work, I'd say it's insulting.

What happened to the stickies?

Maybe he should just lump it up top with the "NEWS" headline...
Keeping the forum-related stickies and the site-in-general stickies seperate...

I never look at those anyway.

MYfirst00 · 02-02-2007, 12:57 PM

I wouldn't doubt he's earning full-time pay off the site. There are 2300+ people on the website right now. That's just gold to advertisers.

I say good for him. He just needs to organize it all better.

MitchGT · 02-02-2007, 02:35 PM

^^^ Agreed. He's in the business to make money. But this IS getting a little rediculous.

Reason01 · 02-02-2007, 04:32 PM

lol deja vu .....This thread makes me laugh.

flanders · 02-02-2007, 05:28 PM

I will start looking in the stickies when we have a Classifieds sticky in there.

Chi_San · 02-02-2007, 08:27 PM

Maybe you should just make your entire posts links? That way, the stupid advertising software can't mess your posts up.

Actually, I don't see them at all, something wrong with the Linux version of Firefox, I think.

rougeben83 · 02-02-2007, 08:51 PM

we should just all post on sl-i.net

Mark will be happier since he can ban anyone he wants over there

I don't know where people get this idea...I'm not an admin on SLi. Just a moderator.
